Average Cost
If C(x) is a cost function, then the average cost function, is the function
The derivative of the average cost function is called the marginal average cost function.

Average Revenue / Profit If R(x) is a revenue function, then the
average revenue function is
If P(x) is a profit function, then the average profit function is
